Legacy
Legacy is about what we leave behind and how we lead while we’re here.
It’s the stories, lessons, and quiet daily acts that shape the future long after we’re gone.
Here you’ll find reflections on leadership, integrity, family, and the kind of impact that endures.


My Father's Final Gift | Strength Found in Grief
After my dad died, I didn’t fall into stillness. I fell into a storm, grieving one kind of loss while surviving another. Only now, in the quiet after, has the weight of his absence truly landed. But so has something else: the quiet strength he passed on. Not in words. In essence.
This piece isn’t just about grief.
It’s about what lives on.
What was quietly left behind.
What I carry forward.

"That's cool, Mom. I'm Going Back to Bed."
Motherhood is funny like that. You give and give and give. You build and grow and reach.
And then, at the end of the day, you find yourself in the kitchen telling a half-asleep teenager about the empire of ideas you’re constructing.
And somehow, that’s enough.
